That’s the same excuse as
“The Nazis genocide is so it’s fine if we genocide others”
It still gives context to why the person conflated the statement with Israel.
Though I think anyone in tune with the news cycle would conflate killing children with Israel.
You can simply take the side of innocent people here, you know?
This isn’t two sports teams going against each other. There are people okay with the mass killing of an entire people to further their own political and ideological goals, and there are those who are not. It really doesn’t need to be any more complicated than that.
This is actually something I don’t understand when this argument is brought up. Havent they both been killing each other since well before the modern period?
It made a little more sense when the argument was that Hamas is bad, but that doesn’t justify collateral damage to Palestinian civilians when targeting them. But it seems to me the rhetoric I see often has switched to making excuses for Hamas, who directly tries to kill children whenever they get the opportunity, including putting their own Palestinian civilians in the line of fire to confuse attacks against them and get them killed as “martyrs”. Which they use to justify their actions, even though they caused it.
I don’t see how Israel’ careless around getting noncombatants killed justifies deliberately targeting civilians, which Hamas does constantly, or doing things like putting a rocket launcher on top of a hospital just so it looks bad for Israel when they destroy it. It’s not like Hamas wants a peaceful two-state solution and Israel just isn’t playing along. And theres not a lot of anti-Hamas sentiment in Gaza since they get murdered by Hamas, and they did vote them in in the first place.
If you count the modern period as after 1900, there was no tension between the Jews and Palestinian Arabs because there were very few Jews actually living in the area. Jews made up about 3% of the population until the first Zionist conference in 1897. Following on from this, the colonial project began with European Jews moving to Palestine.
Historically every time a settler colonial population moves into a new area the demonise, oppress and attempt to kill off the native population. We had the British in Ireland, Spanish and Portuguese in south and central America, northern Europeans in North America, British again in Australia and new Zealand, European powers in the “race for Africa” and now the Jewish setter colonisers in Palestine. Israel does not want a two state solution, it is quite clear from the evidence at hand that the “greater Israel” project is their goal. The rest of the world needs to wake up to the obvious, Israel is shouting about it and the world is not listening. Boycott, Divest and Sanction the genocidal Zionists, this worked for South Africa and their apartheid regime.

What are you talking about.
Is this the statement that made him Hamas? Fuck off with your goalposts
“If you want a besieged Palestinian to condemn it, you need to declare that you condemn what Israel [has] been doing against Palestinians before the 7th of October, since 1948 and during the genocide, and after it. Palestinians are not or not terrorists, Israeli killing Palestinians everyday like it’s a duty for them. Israel is a terror state,” Azaiza wrote on March 11, after he had left Gaza for his new base in Qatar.
So no she didn’t, you’re just peddling lies and propaganda?
She did a video with a journalist, a journalist who also was on BBC, who was submitted one of Times top 10 photos of the year, interviewed with The Guardian, etc. A well respected international figure who has been one of the most prominent people covering Gaza from inside.

But of course to ZioNazis hes the worst person ever because he documents their genocide.
The is Hasbara. Do is everything else that you’ve written in this thread and, looking at your post and comment history, it looks like the MAJORITY of what you type up on lemmy is Hasbara.
Sooo, and I’m pretty against fedjacketing people online, and find that it can be pretty dangerous. But I’m fairly confident you are working for Mossad.
So we’ve gone from:
I like pancakes.
Why do you hate waffles?!
… to …
Killing children is bad.
Obviously you must have brain damage that causes you to spread hateful bigotted conspiracy theories.
Somehow, reality ended up being more ridiculous than Metal Gear Solid 2.
